New Z4C in Scotland

Post by StuCracker » Tue Apr 11, 2017 8:10 pm

Purchased a Z4C in Ruby Black last week, been having a bit of fun before posting on here.
I'm usually a full black interior person, so i was a bit dubious about the champagne? leather, but a week in and i'm quite happy with it, although the leather does need a bit of TLC.
I've been reading thru a lot of stuff over the last few weeks trying to absorb as much info as possible, definately a wealth of knowledge on here.

Hi and welcome. Thanks for the pic - nice looking car!

If all of you Scots drove your Zeds at the same time, Scotland would grind to a halt!

Enjoy :driving:

Welcome Stuart,

I'm glad to see another Z4C in Ruby Black with Champagne Nappa Leather on the Forum. :thumbsup:

Where did you buy it from?

Thanks for the welcome's.

I got it from a dealer in Leeds, It's an 08 SE but seems to have a lot of the M options.

Hi and welcome from a fellow Coupe owner. :thumbsup:

I liked the contrast of Ruby Black with Pearl Grey on my first one (I wouldn't have bought it if the interior had been black as well)! Hope you get some good sun soon - so you can see Ruby Black at it's best!

If your seats are just suffering from scuffing I believe Scuffmaster kits are meant to be pretty good (I haven't tried one though), but others on here may have recommendations from personal experience.

But you're probably too busy driving it for now!

That must explain why I only really want an E86 - Dad was born in Muir of Ord. :lol:

I've never owned a convertible/roadster, I'm not a fan of driving with my coat and hat on never mind a full waterproof suit for a Scottish climate.

Me neither - I don't like the idea of a drowned look on a wet day, the "through a hedge backwards" look on a windy day or the burnt head look on a sunny day. :thumbsup:

Other than that a Roadster may be fun. :(
